My Cat Profile

About Me

Education: I drink from a cup and faucet & won 1st place in a Halloween contest where I was the only cat among all dogs. My Dad and I are featured on the National Stroke Association "faces of stroke" for 2011 since May is stroke awareness month. I help my Dad with his therapy and he and my mother are both happy to have me here with them. This is a big plus for us cats, as I have been getting a lot of attention -usually dogs are focused on as therapy pets. I am actually the first cat to be featured as a therapy pet for the stroke web-site. The web-site info, if you want to look it up is: National Stroke Association Awareness Month - go to the right side where it says "faces of stroke" and then click on the stroke survivors - when you scroll down you will see Roger Hill and his cat Ray Bey - click this and the big photo will come up with the article. We are very proud of how well we are doing now.

My favorite tricks and treats are: I fetch toys and help my human mother get the newpaper & feed the birds daily and Arby's roast beef sandwich (without the bun) - a real treat - I even say thank you at the drive-thru - they know me there !

Where I hang out: on top of my 6 foot tower at the sliding glass windows in the living room looking at the creek way in the back yard & watching the squirrels & chipmonks eating the grub we put out for them

My cat hobbies: I love to go for a ride while listening & singing to rock music in the car // I walk outside on a leash with my Harley coat & hat on in the nice weather checking out the local wildlife every chance I get !!!

Pet motto: Eat ! Play ! Love !

How We Met

I came to live with my family after my adoptive dad had a massive stroke and suffered entire left side paralysis. I had to be declawed in the front since my dad was on coumadin. Everyday, I help him with his home therapy- the doctors said I would be good at that and I am !!! We play and snuggle and my human dad is really making progress in using his left arm and leg.

"Time has no divisions to mark its passage, there is never a thunder-storm or blare of trumpets to announce the beginning of a new month or year. Even when a new century begins it is only we mortals who ring bells and fire off pistols."~Thomas Mann

One day Rosie’s future Dad-To-Be was in his backyard when he saw a feral mother cat and kitten. The mother cat ran but the kitten stayed. Dad picked her up and took her inside. They named her Rosie and her new Mom took her to the vet where she got a clean bill of health. She was taken back home and met Mom and Dad’s other cat Meeko, a 6 year old. They immediately bonded and fell in love with each other. Meeko is now Rosie’s big brother. They clean each other and even sleep together. Rosie just loves her new furever home. Won’t you please send a vote her way on the 26th so she can get her very own well deserved COTD badge..Thanks

And don’t forget to vote daily for our COTM candidate Angel Maggie #2546. She really appreciates all the votes you have sent her way thoughout the month.

~Vote BUSTER #187904 COTD September 19th~Our special recognition kitty for today was found roaming the neighborhood where his soon-to-be furever parents were renting a house. BUSTER #187904 was being taken care of by a neighbor & she had already had him altered plus was feeding him daily but she knew he needed more. Unfortunately the sweet lady couldn’t keep him inside with her other cats so she was thrilled when her new neighbors offered to take him in. BUSTER #187904 was brought into his new furever inside home & met his new siblings. Like most new kitty acquaintances, there were a few hissing matches between them but nothing too serious. He’s now a happily adjusted 5 year old that has learned to open doors to get where he wants to go. His life on the streets may have ended but his inside life will happily go on thanks to the loving intervention of his cat loving furever family. Please run by to visit BUSTER #187904 today, Monday September 19th, & paw him a much deserved COTD vote. We look forward to watching him open the door of his home & dancing down the sidewalk in joyous celebration of his shiny new badge tomorrow morning!

Please Vote COTD Kaomi #208341 August 15thToday’s special recognition kitty went to the California Bengal Rescue Network when she was 10, after her former dad lost his job & house. Kaomi #208341 went to a foster home but wasn’t sure if she wanted to continue living after losing her beloved dadcat. She stopped eating for several days but the foster mom was so kind & loving that she decided to keep on going & try to enjoy her new surroundings. After a year had passed the foster mom decided that she & Kaomi had bonded so well that she would be a purrfect furry daughter to add to her life, so she signed the papers & became her furever mom. Kaomi #208341 was thrilled that she’d never have to experience the heartache of losing a parent again & has become a purrfect feline companion to her mom. She’s now a happy 13 year old that lives her life to the fullest each day thanks to the kindhearted mom that wouldn’t give up on her. Her motto, “you’re never too old to enjoy life”, is purrfect for any senior cat to live by but holds a special meaning to this sweet kitty. Please pounce by & paw Kaomi #208341 a COTD vote today, Monday August 15th so we can watch this contented kitty do a happy dance as she dons her shiny new badge tomorrow.

Hi Rey Bey!PLEASE VOTE MONDAY AUG 1 FOR MAINE GANG ELI 211689 Poor Eli was 18 years old, and in failing health. His person had gone into assisted living and Eli was dependent on someone coming by only three times a week to be sure he had food, water, and scoop the litter box. Luckily, someone realized this was not adequate for a kitty no matter what age, and he was placed in Abyssinian Rescue. The Maine Gang's Mom saw him on the internet and fell in love with him. She specializes in caring for sick and special needs kitties so she was eager to adopt Eli into her loving home. Today, Eli has some health issues and can eat only wet canned food but he's thriving in his new loving, caring environment. Please go by page #211689 and leave a vote for this very old kitty who is still enjoying his life. He would love to be the center of attention at his very own COTD party!

As the month draws to a close, we thank KING EASY GOING #58050 for being such a hard working, loved by all, King of July!

We also hope everyone will go by Angel Henry's page #159309 and leave him a vote every day in August. We know the campaign will be a lot of fun for everyone, and we know you won't want to miss getting a blog in return for your vote!

As always, we thank all of our loyal voters and supporters of the CMR hopefuls! We're leaving you a tuna fish popsicle for your cool refreshment! Thanks you everyone, this is Charlotte #196844 and Sabrina Anne Bell #175550 for the CMR page #46883.

~VOTE INDIE #208247 COTD JULY 25~Today’s special recognition kitty is well known throughout the CC community as a kitty that received several helping paws to relocate to his new furever home. 5 year old Indie #208247 is one of the surviving members of Kathy Stepnick’s cat family & was heartbroken by her passing in April of this year. Indie was originally adopted by Kathy after being returned to the shelter twice by previous owners. His behavior was not an issue so it was hard to understand why anyone would want to give up this precious bundle of fur. The second time he came into the shelter he refused to eat & was losing weight due to being nervous about the situation. A friend called Kathy & asked if she would consider adoption so she went to have a look. The loving bond was formed immediately as she gazed into his brilliant blue eyes & he went to what he thought would be a furever home. Fate dealt him & his siblings another blow when their mom left & never came home though. Luckily several active CC members came to the clan’s rescue & so began another trip for Indie #208247 to a new state to find his new adopted family. He was “officially” adopted on 4/30/2011 by his new family & is the proud owner of the “I” in the TISK team. He loves his new siblings Terri & Shadow & the fact that his older brother Kato came with him to their new home. They’re adjusting together to a new life that is an inspiration to all cat lovers & rescuers alike. Indie #208247 is one of the lucky kitties that never need worry about seeing the inside of a shelter ever again thanks to the outpouring of love from the CC community. Please pounce by & paw Indie #208247 a COTD vote today, Monday July 25th, so that his happy heart can pound a little faster when he sees his face as the star of CC tomorrow.

Please remember to run by & paw those daily COTM votes to Sparky #3436! We want to see him twinkle with delight as he puts on the golden crown of the August King of CC! Also take a minute to slip off your shoes & visit King Easy Goin #58050 as he directs the CC community from his island paradise.

This is Zaboo, NICE crew, Sienna and sibs & Sabrina Anne, wishing you a fabulous summer day. We’re pawing you a catnip coated mice cream bar as our way of saying thank you for supporting today’s CMR #46883 special recognition COTD nominee.

Vote Posha #199661 on Mon Jul 18th for COTDThere is a really sweet little 1 year old kittygirl named Posha that could really use your help. She wants to earn her COTD badge and needs your votes.

Her pawrents said that they loved her the moment they saw her as a kitten and needed her in their family. Among her many talents is the fact that she can throw things in the air and catch them with her claws. She loves to look out windows and takes her naps in the bathtub. She loves her family and they love her right back so won’t you please give this little sweetheart your vote on Monday Jul 18th. I know she will be forever grateful. Thanks a bunch.

And while we are on the subject of voting, don’t forget to stop over at our COTM candidate Sparky #3436 and give him your vote daily all thru July. He surely would appreciate it.

A big congrats to our reigning King Easy Goin over at the Royal Castle Page # 58050.

This is Buddy and Princess Lee for CMR team thanking you all for your continued support of all our candidates. And to show our appreciation we leave for your dining pleasure a generous serving of our chicken cat-ciatore garnished with catnip on the side. Enjoy and bye for now…

Hi Ray BEY!PLEASE VOTE 4TH OF JULY FOR JULIUS #197158 You'll get your laugh for the day when you see the picture story shown in 2 photos at the bottom of Julius page #197158! The pictures show a shredded paper mess that we *know* the dog did, but did the dog stick around to take the blame? Noooo! In the second picture, you can see the dog has vamoosed and left Julius with the evidence, He! He! Julius began life with his furrever family when he was found crying under some bushes. He was only a kitten, but he knew immediately when he was loved! We hope you'll go by and see Julius and leave him a vote so he can celebrate winning his very own COTD! Julius says he will share his celebration treats with the dog too, MOL!

We offer our thanks to King Kato for a job well done as our King of June! We offer our congratulations to King Easy as our King of July. And last, but not least, we offer our support for Sparky #3436 as he seeks your support and votes daily every day in July...

Vote Kato #208249 on Mon June 27th for COTDThe late Kathy Stepnick, related this story about Kato. A friend at a local shelter had two cats that lived in the office manager's office. They were special needs cats. When my cat passed, they asked if I would consider taking them. I took Kato and then went back for Baby, who passed shortly after I adopted him. Kato is still going strong. He is polydactyl - both his front and rear paws. When Kathy passed away April 2011, a great effort was made by the CC community to re-home her five kitties. Kato traveled across four states over three days with Indie to live with Terri & Shadow in MA. He was diagnosed with a hyper thyroid condition and is receiving medications to treat it and a possible pollen allergy. Kato is somewhere between 18 and 23 years of age, so new mom calls him 20. He is a powerful kitty for his 8.5 lbs. One day he surprised his new mom by jumping 5 feet from a cat tower to the dining room table! Kato loves to take your hand with his paw & rub it along his face, bringing out his sweetness and a distinct purr.

So won’t you please send out a special vote for this little fighter and get him his well deserved COTD badge at his new home..I know he would really appreciate that and so would we…

And while we are on the subject of voting, please stop over and give our COTM candidate Easy Goin a vote over at his page # 58050.

This is Buddy and Princess Lee for the Catpaign and Mewsroom Crew thanking each and every one of you for your continued support of all our candidates and tonight, as a gesture of our deep appreciation, we leave for your dining pleasure one of our special Broiled Swordfish Steaks with a generous helping of Catnip Fries on the side..Enjoy!!! Bye for now….

We hope you are enjoying a wonderful day today. *Purrs* Max, Dex & Brothers~

Hi Ray Bey!Yeah, it's been raining a lot here too! Because the storms always move east, wez guessing that you're getting the rain wez get several hours later. In fact, it's been raining on and off all day, but not real hard, so, our prediction is that you'll be getting it by nightfall or early morning, let us know. It's so nice that you have such a special relationsghip with your daddy and that you can comfort each other, isn't that the best?

Hi Rey Bey!Wez stopping in to Meow with you. Wez just pawed you vote # 370. It's gonna be a bit warm and humid here today with thunderboomers. Our brother Maxwell in particular likes them and is waiting by the patio door for the sky to open up and let it pour. He is quite the adventurous fellow. Hope all is well on your end.

Hi Ray BeyHow was your weekend? We had a fun time celebrating our PawPaw on Father’s Day. We got him a cute card & an American Patriot tshirt that says “Navy Seals 1 Bin Laden 0” on it. He liked it. Today it is 97 degrees, with heat index of 105 to 114. We are under a heat advisory here in southwest Mississippi. It has been almost 3 weeks since we received any rain. Boy do we need some! We are watering our lawn and flowers with the sprinklers. The birdies really like the sprinklers. I like to lay on my windowseat and watch them. Free entertainment!

~VOTE COTD OSCAR JON #198409 JUNE 20th~Today we’re asking all of you generous CC kitties to pounce over & meet a gentle giant. Oscar Jon #198409 is a big 20 pound Maine Coon boy that loves to lay on his back & “let it all hang out” while his mom dangles his favorite mouse over him so he can grab at it. He loves the fact that his mom grows fresh catnip for him & dries it to keep around for a tasty treat. Oscar Jon #198409 told this reporter that he often pushes it off of the chair so he can roll in it too, but thinks his mom doesn’t know that little secret about him. His mom says he’s so cute when he’s begging for a treat of fresh catnip because he’ll jump onto the computer chair, stretching his paws as far as he can, & look longingly at the plants before looking back at her. She can’t resist his cuteness so he gets a nibble. He’s still looking for the secret hiding place where she keeps the dried stuff though & we’d all better hope he doesn’t find it or we might be in a heap of trouble…MOL! Oscar #198409 is a very well behaved cat that also has the special talent of knowing when his mom’s blood sugar has dropped. He’ll jump onto the bed to wake her up when he realizes something is wrong & she credits him for saving her life at least twice because of his awareness to her condition. We think Oscar Jon #198409 a very special kitty & would love to see him get his very own COTD badge. Please pounce over to meet the gentle giant, Oscar Jon #198409, today & paw him a COTD vote so that he knows we think he’s special too.

Who’s Eager to play, Agile in & out of the rink, Siamese through & through, plus Yearning for a COTM badge? Our own sweet EASY GOIN #58050! Please remember to pounce over & paw him a daily vote every day in June so he can be crowned as our King of CC for July!

While you’re out pouncing through the CC community please drop by the castle & let King Kato #107339 know what a fantastic job he’s doing as our monarch this month too.

This is Zaboo, NICE crew, Sienna & sibs for the CMR #46883, thanking you for your support of our COTD/COTM nominees & pawing you a catnip coated mice cream bar in appreciation for your devotion to our cause of making CC a family friendly & peace loving community.

Hi Ray Bey,sure had a great time catching up with you on our trip to Venus yesterday. I brought home some of the heart shaped love rocks to be engraved with Wilson & my names. Yesterday was a 1 year anniversary for our engagement. He brought me beautiful yellow & white roses.

Wishing you & Mom a great weekend and working hard to catch up our meow mails before the thunder boomers move in. Molly Marissa

Hello Ray BeyWhat’s purring with you today? Just another sizzling hot and humid day here in southwest Mississippi. Did you know that cats inherit their tendency toward friendliness mainly from their father’s genes? Although the mother’s genes play a role, they are not as strong in determining friendliness in cats as the father’s are. We learned this fact from our 2011 Cat Fancy Desk calendar. Mommy said my father must not have been very friendly. MerryBelle and Casper Todd are both very furiendly, but can I help it that I am super “shy”???

Have a dazzling day. Kisses, Sissy

P.S. Casper Todd says thanks a bunch for voting for him in the Most Patriotic Contest and for your sweet comment.

Dear Ray BeyI'm pleased to meet you! I saw you on Jazpyr Knight's page and wanted to come and say what a wonderful thing you are doing as a pet therapist for your Dad!! I'm ao proud of you. You will see on my bio that I acted as pet therapist for my Dad after his heart attack on September 11, 2001. I'm too much of a scaredy cat to be taken to hospitals or nursing homes to do it for others, but I have gotten my Dad through a lot of hard times. I sure love you photo and your story! Hope you can come and visit me. Purrs, Ginger Spicegirl (I also go by Gin Gin)

Hi Rey Bey!Wez prowling around real late here on CC trying to catch up on our notes and votes. Sometimes mom only has time to help us with our silent votes. But wez wanted to stop by and say a more formal "Meow" to you. Hope all is going well by you.

Hi Ray BeyWhat’s mew with you? It is super duper hot & humid here, 99 degrees. Thankfully, we are staying cool & calm under the central a/c. Guess what?! Silly Mommy has entered me in another contest on CC. This one is sponsored by Cat Channel and here’s the link:

It’s the Most Patriotic Cat contest and is determined by the people’s votes. So, if you get a chance, please go to that link and vote for me, once a day from today through July 1st. I would really appreciate your votes.

Have a fun day. Love, Casper Todd

P.S. Happy Flag Day tomorrow. Celebrating the colors used in the flag of the United States of America - white signifies purity & innocence, red stands for hardiness & valor, and blue signifies vigilance, perseverance & justice.

***Vote Patches 197157 Mon June 13***Sweet little Patches was homeless and wandering around when her future meowmy found her. Her mom had recently lost her calico and was just out taking a walk when fate brought the two together. Patches now happily shares her home with her two fursiblings, Julius and Freckles, and some canines her mom thankfully keeps away from her. She enjoys watching her mouse in the cage and sleeping on the couch. And she will eat just about anything except human food and who can blame her? Humans eat some weird stuff, don't they? MOL. Please paw on by her page 197157 so she can earn her very own COTD bade. And while you are in the voting mood, don't forget our current COTM, Mr. Easy Goin 58050. He sure would appreciate your visit. Thanking you with a catnip sprinkled crab cake. Love, Sylvester for the Catpaign & Mews Room.

Mom's brother has been moved from the hospital to get more recovery time in a skilled nursing faciity. He will start PT later when his spine gets healed. He is lucky that he will walk again some day.

It is so nice to hear that you helped with healing after your Dad's stroke. our Dad also suffered a nasty brain stem stroke in May of 98. We hope your Dad gets stronger as time goes on as our Dad did.

king Kato is going to let us hold Mama Abigail.Angel Monica & my birthday celebrations along with Mama & my surprise COTD wins at the castle this Sat 7pm. No live blogging necessary, no gifts, food etc. Mama brought us some cowboy hats & boots so we will have a Texas coyboy theme going on. We have enough for everyone. Hope to see you

Hello Ray BeyWhat’s mew with you? We are having record-breaking heat of 101 degrees & high humidity, but that is summertime in the south! Thank goodness for central air! MerryBelle is stretched out on the sofa, I am resting in my pretty purple bed that my sweet boyfuriend Rhoamin sent for our anniversary, and brat boy is cuddled in Nana’s lap.

Mommy’s paws have finally recovered from answering all of Casper Todd’s 5th COTD blogs. We will not be online again until next week. Mommy and Nana have doctor appointments. Glad it’s them and not me!

Here comes the Calico Cyclone spinning byto create a cool breeze for everyone…MOL! We woke up to another very warm morning. The temps in our area are supposed to climb into the mid 90s with a heat index of over 100 so mom has been outside getting as much done as she can before it gets unbearable. Farm equipment has been going by rumbling the house this morning so I’ve taken to the cat tree. All those big things make me nervous! Today I’m going to tell you about the other ornery cat in the house…Patches. As most of you know it’s generally me that gets into things but yesterday Patches was in a very playful mood & wreaked her own kind of havoc…MOL! First of all…she swiped my snake & wouldn’t let go of it. I was afraid she was going to rip its head off but mom got it away from her before any serious damage was done. Then she decided it was time to swat me on the rump & take off running! I can’t resist a good chase so off we went racing until I lost track of her. Where did she go? I looked everywhere for her & was just about to give up when the kitchen cabinet banged. Curiosity got the best of me…like usual (MOL) so I pulled open the cabinet. I was greeted with a whack on the head & Patches diving over me & out of the cabinet. Geesh…doesn’t she know that’s MY place to hide! Anyway, it was a fun-filled day with the Tortoiseshell Tornado yesterday so I’m taking it easy today & laying with Mr. Lovable…Zaboo. If you ever need a calm, cool purr to take the stress out of your day then come over & let his baby blue eyes melt your heart as he purrs you to sleep. It’s wonderfully relaxing & always makes the day worth waking up for. Now for today’s mews: CC mews: Pounce by & wish a Happy Birthday to…DINO #93796, ANGEL MOE #149380, & MISTY #180491! Please keep these kitties in your prayers & paw lightly when you go to visit so you don’t disturb their rest… Spikerton #26683 (Catgrats for COTD!) Harry #159809 (back on meds) & Sylver Tuff Knight #160205 (recovering from being hit by car). Don’t forget to drop by & paw a daily COTM vote to EASY GOIN #58050 & also remember to stop by & take a tour of the CC castle with King Kato #107339!

Pawing you a catnip flavored popsicle along with a vote! Purrs, Trixie for NICE crew

P.S. Keep up the good work with your dad Ray Bey! You're a very special kitty & should be very proud that you've helped him so much.

Hi Ray Bey, It's Talley,Thank your dad for us. As a Ranger your dad lived a different Viet Nam than my dad did. Dad says that it was all hard, but that the air war was easier than what was fought on the ground. Dad flew the RF4-C during Viet Nam and the U-2 after that. We're having some very warm weather here, but we finally got some rain yesterday, It was actually enough to help the firefighters make some progress with the Okefenokee Refuge Fire. We live about forty miles South of it but even so we've had heavy smoke for almost two weeks. I think it's so cool that you are a therapy cat. Dad read the article to us about how you help your dad. You really are a Hero. I'm sending you and your family a vote from all of us, and I'm sending Hugs & Purrs to you from me. Your friend, Talley
